What do you do when you are offered any number of gifts including
but not limited to artifacts, letters, historical documents,
collections of pictures, postcards, arrowheads? This book helps you
reject such offers (keeping the prospective donor happy) or add and
maintain these in your collection so that they are useful and used.
Since archival materials are not considered as the usual
circulation materials, how and when to loan them is another
question answered. You may also be able to get volunteers to help
you at every step along the way when you are acquiring and
restoring gifts. Many librarians are recipients of a variety of
gifts from members of the community. How to accept or reject these
donations is a continuing problem for persons who work in public
libraries and will be even more of a question when the librarian
has little formal training in archival or preservation work.
